⚡About Amber
Amber is an entirely new way to buy and sell power, designed for a world powered by renewable energy. We give customers direct access to the real-time
wholesale electricity price as it varies every 5 mins and the technology to shift more of their energy usage to the times when cheaper renewables are available in the grid.
It's a cheaper way to buy power, a smarter way to sell power, and the fastest way for Australia to reach 100% renewable energy.
We are a explicit category leader in Australia for home battery automation and are growing rapidly
(over 68k customers)
. We have also
recently expanded into licensing our core technology
to utilities overseas, including a
partnership with E.ON Next in the UK
.
Amber is backed by top Australian and international investors
including Square Peg, Main Sequence, Breakthrough Victoria, Commonwealth Bank, NRMA, Gentrack, ETF Partners (UK/Europe based), and E.ON Next.
We are
scaling rapidly
and

committed to
building a diverse, inclusive, and purpose-driven culture

Our products are reshaping home energy: Amber for Batteries
cuts bills by exporting stored energy at wholesale prices of up to $19/kWh, and
Amber for EVs
enables the cheapest, cleanest charging.
In ****
, we will push this even further with our new
vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology
